Vehicle

2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class SLK55 AMG 2dr Roadster (5.4L 8cyl 7A)

Review

Test drove 2005 Vette - no comparision. Benz is much better build and trim level. Great exhaust note. Cannot compare SLK 350 to 55, have driven both. Not one complaint about this car. Best car I ever owned. Paid $ 1,000 over MSRP & waited 8 weeks for car. I would do it in a heartbeat all over again. Fuel Economy scored 9, but is what you expect from 355+ hp, AMG is thirsty.

Favorite Features

Blistering power. The looks at the gas station & on the road. Haven't been beaten off the line yet.

Suggested Improvements

Cruse control stalk too close to turn signal arm, cup holder too high on dash. Should offer Parktronic as an option.
